Rat knows the strip’s audience.

When I want family friendly, I read Peanuts. Still enjoy Peanuts and read it daily. Pearls Before Swine has a very different appeal for me that would be ruined by making it more family friendly.

Methinks Steph could just happily hug Rat for putting John in the john… then angrily strangle the varmint for having to make him buy another phone.

I must do that each time I get one of those survey calls, or supposed awards.

Is this the same John Glynn who filled in as a vacation artist for Dilbert the week of February 29th, and was almost universally panned by the commenters? Even after the vacation period ended, out of the six artists that had filled in, commenters rated Glynn the lowest by far. So he’s the head of the syndicate — or is this a different John Glynn?

If he’s head of a syndicate you’d think he’d be able to make Steph an offer he can’t refuse.
